House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in reference to Obama Care, had the audacity to quote the Declaration of Independence to validate its approval. I am assuming she completely stopped after happiness and did not read the rest of it. “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” This means, Mrs. Pelosi, YOU are supposed to listen to the people. The majority of Americans, the governed, did not want the bill passed. BUT, since you had multiple investments in health care companies, you, and the other inside traders, had a lot to lose and passed it without reading it.
A few other words were also mentioned further into reading; despotism and tyranny. If the government mandates the people to purchase a service, is that state control? Besides, you quoted the wrong document, the Constitution is what authorizes laws, and the Declaration is exactly what it says it is. Our Republic is slowly turning into the type of government from which we, THE PEOPLE, declared our independence. One last question, have you finished reading the 960 pages yet?
